Chereads / I, The New Hokage of Konoha / Chapter 24 - Hiruzen's Determination

Chapter 24 - Hiruzen's Determination

When it came to cat and cat catching, if the mouse intended to go easy on him, the entire process would be greatly shortened.

On the bright side, Uchiha's security forces, the Hyuga clan led by the Shadow Guards, as well as Orochimaru, who was the initiator, did not care.

With the cooperation of the three, just as Yuki had expected, not long after, the collected records of Orochimaru's crime, and the secret base where he conducted human experiments, were presented to Yuki after a summary.

"Lord Hokage, what should we do now?"

In the Hokage's office, Fugaku asked seriously.

When the detective found out that the mastermind behind the disappearance of the population was Orochimaru, he felt that the matter was tricky.

Especially after further investigation, he vaguely realized that he and the Uchiha clan should be looking for the 4th Hokage, and unknowingly fell into the struggle between the 3rd and 4th.

One must know that Orochimaru was the direct disciple of the 3rd Hokage, and once the former exposed such a big scandal, his reputation would be ruined and a great blow to the reputation of the 3rd.

At that time, it would lead to a more influential power struggle in Konoha.

Thinking of this, Fugaku felt a headache coming on.

The Uchiha clan was in a bad situation in Konoha. Once, they fell into the center of a power struggle. If things didn't go well, it would be even more dangerous.

However, the current situation was that it was impossible for them to quit after working so hard on Orochimaru.

Therefore, he could only follow this 4th generation's leader who had tricked him.

Fugaku's eyes were full of killing intent: "Orochimaru harmed the villagers and secretly carried out forbidden human experiments. This is a serious violation of Konoha's regulations, and the evidence is conclusive. 4th generation leader, please give the order that Konoha's security forces are willing to capture this murderer."

Fugaku's words were undoubtedly a declaration of loyalty, and he really decided to stand on the side of Yuki.

"I will remember the contribution of the security forces this time." Yuki nodded with appreciation and then calmly said, "But this matter is not urgent. Orochimaru, after all, is one of the three Konoha Ninjas and has made a great contribution to Konoha. Even if there is a great mistake, we should discuss it before deciding. I think this matter will be decided by the 3rd. After all, as Orochimaru san, he is more suitable."

In the beginning, when Fugaku heard Yuki say, "no hurry", his eyebrows could not help but tighten quite a bit, and he looked at him, who was not anxious about eunuchs.

But soon, after hearing that this matter was handed over to the 3rd, he was first stunned, and then he thought of something, and his brow relaxed again, no longer having any objections.

"By the way, a lot of people are participating in this investigation. I think many people know the truth about Orochimaru." Yuki suddenly thought of something and asked again.

"Indeed." Fugaku's eyes lit up, and he said.

Yuki sighed and said, "So that's how it is. It seems that Orochimaru's matter can not be concealed in the village. Since it can't be concealed, then there is no need to do anything useless." "Defending against the people is better than guarding against the river. What we can do now is to end this matter as soon as possible. Men!"

Outside the door, Hiruzen quickly came in.

Yuki took out the evidence file on the table and handed it over. "Quickly hand these over to the third-generation leader to check and help me send a message. Tell him that the evidence for the matter of Orochimaru is conclusive, and ask the third-generation leader to make the decision quickly. Otherwise, it will be too late."

Hiruzen's face changed when he heard this.

Although he did not know what had happened, through the meaning between the lines of Yuki, he could roughly deduce that Orochimaru, who seemed to be a disciple of the third generation, had gotten into some trouble.

He did not dare to delay in the slightest and immediately took the scroll and ran anxiously toward Hiruzen.

On the contrary, the leisurely-looking Yuki returned to his seat.

He picked up the tea on the table and gently sipped it. He faintly smiled and said,

"Now, let's see what choice our respected Lord 3rd Hokage will make."

Fugaku was also looking forward to this.

...

In the office of Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Not long after he received the file from Yuki, Hiruzen's face showed a rare expression of loss.

"Orochimaru!"

When he said these three words, his tone was full of shock, regret, and disappointment.

In fact, he had long noticed Orochimaru's private actions in the past, but back then, he had not been too angry, and with his stern warning, he had indeed restrained himself quite a bit.

But who would have thought that the so-called restraint was only for the sake of greater activity in the future?

Looking at the detailed evidence of Orochimaru's crimes on the scroll, Hiruzen knew that his disciple was doomed this time.

At the same time, Hiruzen regretted it very much.

He regretted letting Orochimaru go to Root as his spokesperson and monitor Danzo.

Now that he thought about it, not only did he not achieve his original plan, but he also made these two ambitious and unscrupulous people unite together.

How could he not see that behind Orochimaru's fearless doing all kinds of forbidden experiments, there was also the full support of his old friend?

At this moment, Hiruzen was smoking his pipe with all his might, and he suddenly felt like he was more than ten years older.

At this time, Hiruzen, who was beside him, recalled what Yuki had told him and hurriedly repeated it.

After Hiruzen heard this, his right hand that was holding the pipe slightly twitched.

How could he not understand the meaning of Yuki's words?

This forced him to express his opinion as soon as possible!

In that case...

Hiruzen couldn't bear it, but his eyes were full of determination.

He got up, took out an old combat suit from the wardrobe, and put it on himself.

"Contact the Anbu. Come with me. Catch Konoha's Rebel Orochimaru!"

After tying up the last bracer, the fully-armed Hiruzen coldly ordered.

At this point, for Konoha and for the will of fire, he, the 3rd Hokage, Orochimaru's teacher, would take the initiative to do a great deed!

Soon, the Hokage building was in an uproar.

Yuki got up and looked out of the window, just in time to see Hiruzen leading a team of Anbu Ninjas rushing out at an extremely fast speed.

Looking in that direction, it was Orochimaru's secret base.

On the side, Fugaku, who also saw it, sighed, "In the end, the third generation chief made the best choice."

Yuki didn't speak until the figure of Hiruzen disappeared from his sight, and then he said: "We made the right choice, but we don't necessarily insist on doing it. Our 3rd Hokage is still quite soft."

After saying that, Yuki turned his head to look at Fugaku, who had unknowingly stepped onto his ship, and said: "The big show is about to start, and as the initiator, we naturally have to do it from the beginning to the end. Fugaku, I'll leave the matter I just told you to you. As for me, I'll draw the final end of today's events."
